The Commentary:
“For those of us who have been around the block more than once on Wall Street, we saw something last week that has been seen before during stock market plunges - a sudden sharp reversal that one just knows isn't normal market forces.
John Crudele, who is one of the very few financial journalists not tied to the hip of Wall Street, smelled a rat last week too.
I think the theme song for the "Plunge Protection Team" (PPT) is this.” - Peter Grandich, http://moneytalks.net/peters-content.html
